Istanbul Ili Travel Answers

U must be very angry... Capital letters... Some hotels offers free pick up service from airport so my recommendation to book one of those hotel on the metro line . Esenler is very easy to reach from Sultanahmet or Aksaray area via metro line. last metro from Airport to Aksaray 23.00 , so won't be able to go via metro. If u can not find hotel with free service, u may use havatas. Taksim service also stops at Aksaray . havatas.com/en/coach.aspx?i=...

THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR YOUR ANSWER.I AM NOT ANGRY-ONLY CAN'T SEE VERY WELL THE SMALL LETTERS-THAT'S WHY PREFER TO WRITE WITH BIG ONES--:).THE STATION YOU IDICATED TO ME IS-IT NEAR TO SULTAN EYE CONFORD HOTEL OR TO DUCA HOSTEL?WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT THE RENT-A-CAR?I WILL HAVE PROBABLY GPS,SO MAYBE IT CAN BE MORE EASY TO RICH THE HOTEL,IS-IT?

OKEY I AM ALSO WRITING WITH CAPITALS FOR YOU:)) RENT A CAR IS NOT SOLUTION. BECAUSE SULTANAHMET AREA IS NOT EASY TO GO AND SOME AREAS ARE CLOSE TO CAR TRAFFIC AND ALSO PARKING PROBLEM. SEND E-MAIL TO BOTH PLACES . MAYBE ONE OF THEM HAVE FREE PICK UP SERVICE FROM AIRPORT. AT ALSO THAT AREA, THERE ARE HUNDREDS HOTELS AND IF U SEND MORE THEN 10 HOTELS WHOSE PRICE IS GOOD FOR U MAYBE U GET ONE FREE PICK UP SERVICE. IF NO FREE PICK UP SERVICE, CHOOSE YOUR HOTEL CLOSE TO AKSARAY AREA. BECAUSE HAVATAS STOPS AT AKSARAY AND U CAN JUST WALK TO YOUR HOTEL.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH.YOU ARE VERY GENTLE.I WILL CHECK NOW THE HOTELS IN THE AREA YOU TOLD ME.I WILL CHECK ALSO FOR THE FREE TRANSFER,BUT ICAN'T BE SURE WHEN I BOOK THE HOTEL-I BOOK WITH AGODA-THE CITE SHOW SOME OPTIONS ,AFTER THE BOOKING THEY SAY THEY ARE NOT ACCESIBLE.SO I CAN HAVE A BAD SURPIRE.THAT'S WHY I PREFER TO NOT WAIT THE HOTEL HELP.OTHER THINK- WITH MY LUGGAGE IT WILL BE IMPOSSIBLE TO WALK FROM THE STATION TILL THE HOTEL IN THE NIGNT.NOW I KNOW THAT I WILL BE ALONE.WHAT DO YOU THINK IF I HAVE ONE GPS FOR THE CAR?

NOW I CALLED SULTAN EYE HOTEL:)) ADVANTAGE OF BEING LOCAL....... I FIRST ASKED THE PRICE FOR WEDNESDAY. PRICE THEY GAVE ME FOR SINGLE 70 EUROS FOR ONE NIGHT. AND THEY SAID PICK UP SERVICE FROM AIRPORT IS 30 EUROS. I THINK EXPENSIVE. IF U HAVE ANY OTHER HOTELS AT YOUR LIST I CAN ALSO CALL THEM

Metro - closed during your arrival. So NOT an option. Havatas - is going to Taksim and you want to stay in Sultanahmet as u want to take the tram to buyuk otogar (in Bayrampasa). So maybe not. Taxi - from the airport but maybe ur afraid that they may overcharge you bec. it's after midnight. Private Transport - this may be the last option you have. I use 2 companies in Istanbul who does this transports are very affordable cost, definitely safe and door-to-door delivery. I booked several return transfers for some friends this month at 20 euro for the whole car, no other charges. Pick-up from the airport and delivery to your hotel in Sultanahmet. Here're the links: airporttransferistanbul.com/... efenditravel.com/Istanbul-Ai... Hope that helps.

ANOTHER ADDING HERE. THERE ARE ALSO SO MANY AIRPORT SHUTTLE SERVICES FROM AIRPORT TO SULTANAHMET AREA FOR 10 EUROS PER PERSON. U MAY ALSO USE THEM TOO. RENTING CAR IS UP TO YOU BUT ALSO WILL COST YOU. AND IT S FASTER GOING BY METRO TO ESENLER THEN CAR.

HI,I KNOW THERE ARE SHUTTLE BUSSES.THE QUESTION IS IF THEY WILL WORK AFTER MIDNIGHT.I WILL ARRIVE WENSDAY BUT IN JULY NOT NOW.THANK YOU FOR ASKING THE PRICE FOR ME-I AM USING THE CITE AGODA.COM-THEY GIVE BEST PRICES-CHEAPER THEN 70 EUROS.THANK YOU FRO THE INFORMATION.SHUKRAN LAKI

If you hold down the Control key and press the plus sign, it will increase the font size. If you hold down control and hit the minus sign, it will reduce the font. That might be more effective than using capital letters.

@Jetgirly --- why didn't I know that? :) Thanks.

Havatas runs until 1:00am, but no guarantee that u will be able to catch it considering your arrival is 23:30 -- make allowance for late plane arrival, immigration, luggage collection, etc. That's why the last option I've mentioned above - private transfers - will definitely work when all other options aren't available or not suitable for you. And by the way, EUR 70 at Sultan's Eye is the normal rate in most other online booking engine. Booking.com is almost the same at EUR69 inclusive of breakfast and free cancellation 2 days prior to arrival.

And by the way, Sultan's Eye is a bit of a walk to the tram station. If you have luggages why don't you (I would suggest) stay at a hotel near the tram station, i.e. Ares Hotel almost the same price, 2 minutes walk to Sultanahmet tram station, The Constantine Hotel almost beside the Gulhane tram station at EUR65, Barcelo Saray along the tram track, 2 minutes walk to Beyazit station and Grand Bazaar at EUR75, Hali Hotel also along the tram track, 2 - 3 minutes walk to Sultanahmet tram station, and many more along the main road. Checkout booking.com, use their map navigation to see the nearest hotel to a tram station.

I think some of the suggestions for your hotel in Sultanahmet the previous poster gave would suit you better, can I suggest you contact the Hotels direct and make your booking yourself, it is just a suggestion but if you are on this site it seems you are used to navigating the internet so making your own booking should be easy.

THANK YOU FOR THE SUGGESTION.
